3D Technology Checklist

This product is 3D-related. To help you get a great 3D experience, use the checklist below to ensure you have everything you need. 3D viewing requires:

	A Display First, you’ll need a 3D-ready display–whether it’s a 3D HDTV, 3D projector, or 3D computer monitor. These displays have more processing power than standard 2D models for displaying 3D images in rapid succession.
	A Source Your display may be ready for 3D playback, but you’ll still need a device to read 3D content. This can be a cable box with a subscription to a 3D channel, a 3D Blu-ray Disc player, or a PlayStation 3 system.
	3D Content 3D content–the actual entertainment, in other words–will be played back using the source mentioned above, whether it’s a 3D broadcast from your cable provider, a 3D Blu-ray Disc, or a 3D video game.
	3D Glasses For now, the vast majority of 3D HDTVs require glasses for 3D viewing. Many use powered “active shutter” glasses, others polarized “passive” glasses. You’ll need one pair per viewer, and they’ll have to be compatible with your display, whether they’re the same brand, or a pair of “universal” glasses designed to work across brands.
	HDMI Cable To connect your source (such as a 3D Blu-ray Disc player) to your display, you’ll need a high-speed HDMI cable. Cables with this designation feature bandwidth speeds up to 10.2 Gbps (gigabits per second), for carrying the 3D signal without any loss of quality.
If you want to get more information about 3D, shop our 3D products, watch videos, or interact with other customers, we invite you to visit 3D 101, our customer center about everything 3D.

With the LE835 series, Sharp applies its Quattron technology to the 3D HDTV, producing brilliant 3D images with reduced crosstalk blur. Immerse yourself in the latest 3D title, complete with spacious sound to complete the experience. And whether you’re enjoying 2D or 3D content, you’ll benefit from Sharp technologies like the proprietary AQUOS LED backlighting system and X-Gen LCD panel, which uses an enhanced Active Contrast algorithm to deliver a dynamic contrast ratio of 8,000,000:1. Translation? Serious picture quality. This series also incorporates Sharp’s AquoMotion 240 feature, which virtually eliminates perceptible blur and motion artifacts in fast-moving video. The LE835 Series also boasts Internet connectivity, including Vudu apps, Netflix streaming video, CinemaNow, Blockbuster On Demand, Alphaline Entertainment, and Napster. Built-in Wi-Fi makes connecting a breeze. This also makes for easy access to AQUOS Advantage Live, the industry’s leading online support system, to help ensure you get the most out of your new television.

3D Experience, Now Featuring Quattron Technology

The AQUOS Quattron 3D system produces the brightest 3D image resolution on the market today, significantly reduced 3D “crosstalk blur” and a dynamic contrast ratio of 8,000,000:1. The Quattron LE835 Series 3DTVs employ Sharp’s quad pixel technology, the X-Gen LCD Panel, Frame Rate Enhanced Driving and LED backlight side-mount scanning with a newly enhanced Active Contrast algorithm, to deliver a superior 3D experience. The optional pairs of advanced 3D glasses offer a versatile 3D-to-2D mode conversion allowing one person to watch in 2D while others are watching in 3D. In addition, Sharp’s three Spacious 3D Sound modes complete the immersive experience when viewing movies, concerts or any 3D programming.

Quattron Quad Pixel Technology

Quattron LED LCD TVs feature advanced technologies enabling picture quality that has been difficult or impossible to reproduce using conventional LCD displays. When combined with Sharp’s 1080p X-Gen LCD panel, the displays offer dramatic reduction in energy consumption compared with conventional CCFL LCD TVs. These technologies work in tandem to optimize picture quality and contrast ratios while reducing energy use.

Quattron LED LCD TVs employ a four-color filter, adding the color Y (yellow) to the three colors of R (red), G (green) and B (blue). Quad Pixel technology produces this groundbreaking combination expanding the color gamut and faithfully rendering nearly all colors that can be discerned while introducing never-before-seen colors to LCD TVs, like sparkling golds, Caribbean blues and sunflower yellows.

Sharp’s X-Gen panel provides a wider aperture, allowing more light to pass through, which requires fewer backlighting elements to create an extremely bright image. Also, because the redesigned LCD panel has fewer ribs than traditional panels, the pixels seal more completely, enabling nearly all light to be blocked and resulting in deeper blacks.

AquoMotion 240

AquoMotion 240 Technology improves fast moving images by combining Sharp’s 120Hz Fine Motion Enhanced Technology with 120-backlight scanning. Fine Motion Advanced processing creates and inserts 60 unique frames a second, which smoothes out edges that occur between frames in the original footage. The backlight scanning works with the panel refresh rate to further reduce perceived motion blur and improve overall clarity and picture quality.

X-Gen Panel

Sharp’s X-Gen panel provides a wider aperture allowing more light to pass through, which requires fewer backlighting elements to create an extremely bright image. Also, because the re-designed LCD panel has less ribs than traditional panels, the pixels are better sealed which enables nearly all light to be blocked resulting in darker images.

Mega Contrast

With a full LED backlight, luminance can be controlled with greater precision than with a CCFL backlight because of the differences in intensity control properties. Compared with the modulation rate of a typical CCFL backlight, the ultra-bright LED backlight is capable of modulating down to an incredible rate. Through the combined operation of Sharp’s X-Gen panel, which has a high contrast ratio and Sharp’s ultra-brilliant LED backlight system, AQUOS LE830 Series LCD TVs achieve an ultra-high contrast ratio that delivers unprecedented degrees of black and images that project incredible depth.

VyperDrive

VyperDrive game mode helps to eliminate the lag time between the game console and TV. When Game Mode is activated, the signal is streamlined, resulting in transmission that is five times faster than normal mode. The result is a game experience you’ll never forget.

Environmental Advantages

Sharp designed AQUOS LCD TVs to require fewer resources to manufacture and less energy to consume. Sharp LCD TVs are ENERGY STAR qualified and feature low energy consumption and extended operation life.

120Hz Fine Motion Enhanced

Sharp uses a unique algorithm to create images that help smooth sharp edges on moving objects, like a running play in football, a player swinging a bat, or a car chase. By creating new images and filling in the gaps, motion appears smoother and less jumpy. The result is a smoother picture with more detail.

600Hz Sub-field Drive

600Hz technology lets you view superb full-HD motion and still images with 1080 lines of resolution. For even greater clarity with motion images, Panasonic uses its own unique image-analysis technology. This technology converts the motion in each scene into data. And each frame is practically displayed for a shorter length of time than in previous systems, to reduce aftereffects

Deep Color

VIERA faithfully reproduces all the colors inherent in today’s most advanced image sources, such as Blu-ray Discs and DVDs. Use an HDMI cable to connect VIERA to the playback device, and you’ll enjoy the kind of rich, vibrant colors that make viewing such a pleasurable experience

Long Panel Life, Up to 100,000 Hours

One important way consumers can protect the environment is by choosing high-quality products and taking care of them so they last for a long time. A high-quality VIERA HDTV can help. Thanks to a newly designed phosphor process and rear panel process, our plasma panels last for up to 100,000 hours before the brightness decreases by half. That’s more than 30 years of viewing 8 hours a day.

Mercury and Lead Free Plasma Display Panel

Panasonic is committed to making our products more friendly to the environment. In line with this commitment, all VIERA plasma display panels are free of both lead and mercury. This reduces impact on the environment years down the road when the TV is recycled or retired from use.

x.v.Color

VIERA models with x.v.Color compatibility reproduce all of the vibrant color in images recorded by wide x.v.Color gamut compatible camcorders. These rich, vivid images are a feast for the eyes.
